[ANN] New release of PeriodicTable.jl

We have just released the version 0.1.1 for the package PeriodicTable.jl. This includes:

  • Support for Julia version 1.0
  • Each element now supports a new field called e⁻-configuration

I will like to thank @carstenbauer for his work for this release, plus becoming a contributor to this repo.

Making PeriodicTable.jl use Unitful.jl “for the dimensionful quantities in the Element data” could be a nice thing to contribute here: see use Unitful for dimensionful quantities · Issue #7 · JuliaPhysics/PeriodicTable.jl · GitHub

This is very useful thanks!

Would it be useful for me to add oxidation states? It would allow for somehow guessing the most probably oxidation states of constituent atoms inside a compound. If it would be useful, there is usually a “most probable” oxidation state, should that one be put first in order?

I just implemented this and tagged a new release.
